How to Launch a Broadcast Immediately?
When you need to send a broadcast right away, without waiting for the scheduled time, immediate launch allows starting sending in a few seconds. This instruction will help launch a broadcast manually.
When Needed
- The broadcast is already created, but you need to send it earlier than scheduled.
- You need to quickly test the broadcast on a small group of clients.
- You need to launch an emergency broadcast without waiting for the schedule.
What's Important to Know
- Immediate launch — manual launch of a broadcast that starts sending immediately after clicking the button.
- The broadcast must be active for immediate launch capability.
- After launch, the broadcast begins sending according to system settings.
Prerequisites
You are logged in with operator or administrator rights. You have navigated to the Broadcastmodule viaApps -> Broadcast.There is at least one active broadcast in the system.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- In the
Broadcastmodule, go to the "Broadcasts" section — a table with all broadcasts opens. - Find the needed broadcast in the list — make sure it is active (green indicator in the "Broadcast Active" column).
- Click the "Launch" icon (blue triangle) in the row of this broadcast — the system initiates immediate broadcast launch.
What Happens After
The broadcast begins sending immediately after launch. You can track progress in the results modal window.
How to Verify It Worked
